Best Quotes about Death
We do not die because we have to die; we die because one day, and not so long ago, our consciousness was forced to deem it necessary.
Antonin Artaud
Dying is something we human beings do continuously, not just at the end of our physical lives on this earth.
KuBler-Ross, Elisabeth
Death is the only inescapable, unavoidable, sure thing. We are sentenced to die the day we're born.
Gilmore, Gary Mark
When one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language.
Donne, John
As a well-spent day brings happy sleep, so life well used brings happy death.
Leonardo da Vinci
For 'Tis not in mere death that men die most.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett
I have wrestled with death. It is the most unexciting contest you can imagine. It takes place in an impalpable grayness, with nothing underfoot, with nothing around, without spectators, without clamor, without glory, without the great desire of victory, without the great fear of defeat.
Conrad, Joseph
Few cross the river of time and are able to reach non-being. Most of them run up and down only on this side of the river. But those who when they know the law follow the path of the law, they shall reach the other shore and go beyond the realm of death.
Dhammapada
I do not believe that any man fears to be dead, but only the stroke of death.
Bacon, Francis
Death is but a passage. It is not a house, it is only a vestibule. The grave has a door on its inner side.
Maclaren, Alexander
If we really think that home is elsewhere and that this life is a wandering to find home, why should we not look forward to the arrival?
Lewis, C. S.
It is not death, but dying, which is terrible.
Fielding, Henry
It is as natural to die as to be born; and to a little infant, perhaps, the one is as painful as the other.
Bacon, Francis
I don't believe in an after life, although I am bringing a change of underwear.
Allen, Woody
Men are convinced of your arguments, your sincerity, and the seriousness of your efforts only by your death.
Camus, Albert
To awake from death is to die in peace.
Horton, Doug
We all have to die some day, if we live long enough.
Farber, Dave
Neither the sun nor death can be looked at with a steady eye
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
To die is poignantly bitter, but the idea of having to die without having lived is unbearable.
Fromm, Erich
Death can sneak up on you like a silent kitten, surprising you with it's touch and you have a right to act surprised. Other times death stomps in the front door, unwanted and unannounced, and makes it's noisy way to your seat on the sofa.
Hugh Elliott
We all of us waited for him to die. The family sent him a check every month, and hoped he'd get on with it quietly, without too much vulgar fuss.
Osborne, John
Death is the king of this world: 'Tis his park where he breeds life to feed him. Cries of pain are music for his banquet
Eliot, George
Death always waits. The door of the hearse is never closed.
Bayly, Joseph
Death is the cure for all diseases.
Browne, Sir Thomas
A man's death makes everything certain about him. Of course, secrets may die with him. And of course, a hundred years later somebody looking through some papers may discover a fact which throws a totally different light on his life and of which all the people who attended his funeral were ignorant. Death changes the facts qualitatively but not quantitatively. One does not know more facts about a man because he is dead. But what one already knows hardens and becomes definite. We cannot hope for ambiguities to be clarified, we cannot hope for further change, we cannot hope for more. We are now the protagonists and we have to make up our minds.
Berger, John
To you who have never died, may I say: Welcome to the world!
Barker, Clive
I suppose that I shall have to die beyond my means.
Oscar Wilde
Death doesn't frighten me.
Diana, Princess of Wales
Because I could not stop for death, He kindly stopped for me; The carriage held but just ourselves and immortality.
Dickinson, Emily
Death doesn't affect the living because it has not happened yet. Death doesn't concern the dead because they have ceased to exist.
Maugham, W. Somerset
Death is like an arrow that is already in flight, and your life lasts only until it reaches you.
Hermes, Georg
It is natural to die as to be born.
Bacon, Francis
Is there a life after death? Can I never get some peace?
Kocher, Gerhard
He was exhaled; his great Creator drew His spirit, as the sun the morning dew.
Dryden, John
I will be conquered; I will not capitulate.
Johnson, Samuel
Death is the great adventure beside which moon landings and space trips pale into insignificance.
Bayly, Joseph
See in what peace a Christian can die.
Addison, Joseph
Life is the desert, life the solitude, death joins us to the great majority.
Young, Edward
I warmed both hands before the fire of life; It sinks, and I am ready to depart.
Landor, Walter Savage
To die is landing on some distant shore.
Dryden, John
Death is someone you see very clearly with eyes in the center of your heart: eyes that see not by reacting to light, but by reacting to a kind of a chill from within the marrow of your own life.
Merton, Thomas
Fish die belly upward, and rise to the surface. Its their way of falling.
Gide, Andre
I have a piece of great and sad news to tell you: I am dead.
Cocteau, Jean
The pomp of death is far more terrible than death itself.
Lee, Nathaniel
Dying is a very dull, dreary affair. My advice to you is to have nothing whatever to do with it.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
When death comes it is never our tenderness that we repent from, but our severity.
Eliot, George
The difficulty about all this dying, is that you can't tell a fellow anything about it, so where does the fun come in?
James, Alice
Life is the jailer, death the angel sent to draw the unwilling bolts and set us free.
Lowell, James Russell
The fear of death often proves mortal, and sets people on methods to save their Lives, which infallibly destroy them.
Addison, Joseph
An orphan's curse would drag to hell, a spirit from on high; but oh! more horrible than that, is a curse in a dead man's eye!
Coleridge, Samuel Taylor
